Edits some grammar, moves towards active voice

Also just working on this a little bit more. I tried to edit bytesnake's additions, hopefully it's still what he meant to communicate. If not, of course feel free to change back.

 # Machine Learning Working Group
 **This group is in the [applicant stage](https://github.com/rust-lang/wg-governance/issues/11), and as such is currently unofficial**

-The Rust-ML working group is currently at an early stage of development, and its prospect role and function in the wider Rust ecosystem is currently explored. We strongly believe that Rust can contribute to the Machine Learning community with its correctness and speed. It brings the promise of a unified scientific workhorse by combining elegance and performance, previously only found in separate languages. We are excited to help the Rust ecosystem get to that point.

 More importantly, Rust's machine learning community is filled with experimentation! Take a look at some of the projects currently being worked on by members on the working group's [Task Board](https://github.com/rust-ml/wg/blob/master/Task_Board.md), or take a look at some of the project's being discussed in our [Zulip chat](https://rust-ml.zulipchat.com).
